    How do I get the namespace of a object

    I have a couple of WebForms that all inherit from a custom base class
    (which in turn inherits from System.Web.UI.P age). I would like to
    locate a function in the base class that iterates through the control
    collection of the child page, looks at the type (looking for
    System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Labe l type), and pulls out the full
    namespace and ID for that control (then goes out to a resouce file and
    sets the text of the control for the specified locale amoungst some
    other things). Everything is pretty simplistic except I cant figure
    out how to extract the object namespace from the control (if that
    information is even retained in the assembly).

    In other words, I need to extract the namespace of a specific member
    (NOT the namespace of the member "type"). I am looking for something
    like "Company.Produc t.Module.SubMod ule.lblStreetAd dress3".

    Below is some sample code. Thanks for your help!

    Child WebForm:
    namespace Company.Product .Module.SubModu le
    {
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for CreateAddress .
    /// </summary>
    public class CreateAddress : Page
    {
    protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Labe l lblStreetAddres s1;
    protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Labe l lblStreetAddres s2;
    protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Labe l lblStreetAddres s3;
    protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Labe l lblCity;
    protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Labe l lblState;
    protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Labe l lblZipCode;

    private void Page_Load(objec t sender, System.EventArg s e)
    {
    // Put user code to initialize the page here
    }
    }
    }

    Base class:
    namespace Company.Product .Module
    {
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for Page.
    /// </summary>
    public class Page : System.Web.UI.P age
    {
    private void Page_Load(objec t sender, System.EventArg s e)
    {
    System.Web.UI.P age oPage = (System.Web.UI. Page)sender;
    SetControlText( oPage );
    }

    private void SetControlText( Control oParentControl )
    {
    ResourceManager oResourceManage r = new ResourceManager ( "English",
    typeof( Page ).Assembly );

    if ( oParentControl. HasControls() )
    {
    foreach ( Control oControl in oParentControl. Controls )
    {
    if ( oControl.GetTyp e().ToString() ==
    "System.Web.UI. WebControls.Lab el" )
    {
    Label oLabel = (Label)oControl ;
    //This does not work!
    string sNamespace = oControl.GetTyp e().Namespace.T oString();
    oLabel.Text = oResourceManage r.GetString( sNamespace + "." +
    oControl.ID );
    }

    SetControlText( oControl );
    }
    }
    }
    }
    }

    Resource File:
    <data name="Company.P roduct.Module.S ubModule.lblStr eetAddress3">
    <value>Addres s Line 3</value>
    </data>

      If you can find the namespace of a type then you could find the page that the label is on and get the namespace of that.
